This is the touching story of Fubao, a tiny puppy who faced rejection from the very moment she was born. Too frail and weak for her mother to care for, she was often pushed aside during nursing. However, driven by a powerful will to live, she survived for fifteen days on her own until she was finally rescued by a kind-hearted woman.
1. A Fragile Beginning (Days 1 – 3)
When Fubao was first rescued, she was severely underdeveloped. At 15 days old, she was no larger than a typical 3-day-old puppy. Her rescuer became her surrogate mother, setting alarms every two hours throughout the night to bottle-feed her and keep her warm.
2. The Crisis and the Hospital (Days 4 – 18)
Disaster struck on the fourth day. Fubao’s body became stiff, and her breathing grew dangerously shallow. She was rushed to an animal hospital where doctors diagnosed her with severe malnutrition; her tiny body was simply too weak to absorb nutrients.
-
The ICU: Fubao spent several days in a sterile incubator, fed through a tube.
-
The Turning Point: Proving she was a fighter, she slowly began to regain her strength. By day 18, she had passed the life-threatening crisis and started looking like a healthy “little meatball.”
3. From Weakness to Wiggle-Butts (Days 26 – 59)
By day 26, Fubao’s personality began to shine. She was no longer a dying puppy but a high-energy explorer.
-
Going Home: On Day 38, she was officially discharged from the hospital. She quickly revealed her true identity as a “foodie,” often trying to sneak into the dog food containers.
-
A New Life: By Day 59, Fubao had transformed completely. She became a mischievous, happy, and healthy dog who loves to play and share her food with other dogs in the house.
Final Thoughts
Fubao’s journey from being abandoned at birth to becoming a vibrant member of a loving home is a testament to the power of compassion. Her story reminds us that even the smallest life is worth fighting for.
